Todd's sports philosophy:

"High School Sports is one of the greatest things our kids can do. It IS Competitive, AND it is a learning experience. The complexity comes in finding a balance between those two things. Kids learn life skills and lessons (Work Ethic, Teamwork, Competing, Sportsmanship, Representation, Leadership, and of course, Winning and Losing with Grace.) They learn this at a crucial time, just before they are about to go into the Adult world. Positive Coaches Alliance: 'Kids don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.' That sums it up!!"
